This story is exactly how Europeans felt in the 1950s. Our supermarkets come from the US.

It saddens me that the leftist clowns of today have forgotten the importance of material wealth.

Do you mean the importance of not having entire industries bombed to craters? The "leftist clowns" in Europe today get most of their products from Europe, and they seem pretty content about it. Speaking for myself,the variety of cheeses in western Europe is flabbergasting.
